Teacher Responsibilities with Disabled Students Flashcards
Response to Intervention (RTI)
An approach for the identification of learning disabilities based on whether student leaning progress improves or fails to improve after the student receives increasingly intense, research-based interventions.
Universal Screening
The process used in RtI to assess all students to identify those who are having difficulty learning despite evidence based Tier I instruction.
Tier 1 Instruction
Instruction in RtI that is evidence based and provided to all students in a classroom.
Tier 2 Instruction
Instruction in small group sessions that provide extra practice of targeted skills and content covered in Tier 1.
Tier 3 Instruction
Highly intensive instruction matched to the individual needs of students who continue to struggle, despite well delivered evidence-based instruction in Tier 2.
PBIS
Strategies for preventing behavior challenges as well as techniques for addressing common and intensive behavior problems; PBIS is based on clearly defined outcomes, behavioral science, research-validated practices and systematic approaches. They are grouped by their intensity. Primary Prevention, Secondary Prevention and Tertiary Prevention (Individual Level)
Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP)
A detailed strategy, developed on the basis of a functional behavior assessment, to address significant behavior problems.
Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA)
The process of gathering detailed data on student’s behavior and the context in which it occurs so that a Behavior Intervention Plan can be created.
IEP Components
Present Level of Performance, Annual Goals and Short Term Objectives, Extent of Participation in General Education, Services and Modifications Needed, Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP)
Direct Instruction
Research-based instructional approach in which the teacher presents subject matters using a review of previously taught information, presentation of new concepts or skills, guided practice, feedback and correction, independent student practice an frequent review.
Guided Instruction or Practice
A technique for providing students with verbal or written prompts when attempting a new or challenging skill.
Inclusion
Students with disabilities are integrated into the general education setting whether or not they can meet the traditional curricular standards.
Co-Teaching
Instructional Approach in which two or more teacher or other certified staff share the instruction for a single group of student in a single classroom setting. Also called CTT.
